Requirements and Setup

Running the NVIDIA Riva Tutorials

This section covers the requirements and setup needed to run all Riva tutorials.

Requirements

Before you try running the NVIDIA Riva tutorials, ensure you meet the following requirements:

• Python 3

Setup

1. Clone the NVIDIA Riva tutorials repository. git clone https://github.com/nvidia-riva/tutorials.git cd tutorials

2. Create a Python virtual environment. We will use this virtual environment to install all the dependencies needed for the Riva tutorials. python3 -m venv venv-riva-tutorials

3. Activate the Python virtual environment we just created. . venv-riva-tutorials/bin/activate

4. Install Jupyter notebook. pip3 install jupyter

5. Create an IPython kernel. The Riva tutorials Jupyter notebooks will use this kernel in the next step. ipython kernel install --user --name=venv-riva-tutorials

6. Start the Jupyter notebooks server. jupyter notebook --allow-root --port 8888

If you have a browser installed on your machine, the notebook should automatically open. If you do not have a browser, copy/paste the URL from the command. Once you open a Riva tutorial notebook on a browser, choose the venv-riva-tutorials kernel by Kernel -> Change kernel -> venv-riva-tutorials.

Running the Riva Client

Requirements

Before you try running the Riva client, ensure you meet the following requirements:

• You have access and are logged into NVIDIA NGC. For step-by-step instructions, refer to the NGC Getting Started Guide.
• Python 3

Setup

1. [Optional] If using the venv-riva-tutorials (or another) Python virtual environment, activate it. . <Python virtual environment directory location>/venv-riva-tutorials/bin/activate

2. Install nvidia-riva-client using pip.

pip install nvidia-riva-client

Alternatively, you can install it from the source; nvidia-riva/python-clients.
